CODA

Published: Jan. 3, 2023, 4 p.m.

This week's episode is pretty special, most of the time when my guests choose a film or a tv show, it's picked because they enjoy it or they've been wanting to check it out. My friend that is on here this week is actually a CODA, Child of Deaf Adults, her sister is also deaf, so this film was a lot closer to her than others we've done. The film was released in August of 2021 and is available to stream on Apple TV+, Apple bought the distribution rights for a record (at the time) $25 million after premiering at Sundance. It went on to win Best Motion Picture of the Year (the first movie produced by a streaming service to win Best Picture), Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role (Troy Kotsur became the first deaf actor to win an Oscar), and Best Adapted Screenplay at the Oscars. The film was written and directed by Sian Heder (it was adapted from the French-Belgium film La Famille B\xe9lier that was written by Victoria Bedos, Stanislas Carr\xe9 de Malberg, \xc9ric Lartigau, and Thomas Bidegain, and was directed by \xc9ric Lartigau) and stars Marlee Matlin (first deaf actress to win Best Actress for Children of a Lesser God), Emilia Jones, Troy Kotsur, Daniel Durant, Ferdia Walsh-Peelo, and Eugenio Derbez. I highly recommend checking the film out, it was very well deserving of winning Best Picture.
